Using a cursor to choose options from a main menu

Hiya guys,

I'm trying to set up a main menu where a user can use the arrow key of the keyboard or the joystick to select options from the screen before starting the game. I would also like to display a cursor moving on screen for navigation. My question is: do I need to set up a scene for that and use static sprites, or is there another way I can manipulate different loaded materials on screen to achieve the same effect?

Here is the code from the main menu:

namespace StarterGame2D
{
    class GuiMainMenu : GUIBitmap, IGUIScreen
    {
        // Constructor
        public GuiMainMenu()
        {
            // create the Style for the main menu backdrop
            GUIBitmapStyle bitmapStyle = new GUIBitmapStyle();
            bitmapStyle.SizeToBitmap = false;
            bitmapStyle.PreserveAspectRatio = true;
            Name = "GuiMainMenu";
            Style = bitmapStyle;
            //Bitmap = @"data\images\MainMenu2.png";
            Bitmap = @"data\images\Gui\MenuScreenDragon.png";
            Size = new Vector2(1280, 720);
            OnGUIWake = OnMainScreenWake;

            // bind the first gamepad’s A and B buttons to start and exit the
            // game accordingly
            int gamepadId = InputManager.Instance.FindDevice("gamepad0");
            InputMap.BindCommand(gamepadId, (int)XGamePadDevice.GamePadObjects.A, null, Game.Instance.StartGame);
            InputMap.BindCommand(gamepadId, (int)XGamePadDevice.GamePadObjects.B, null, Game.Instance.Exit);
            InputMap.BindCommand(gamepadId, (int)XGamePadDevice.GamePadObjects.Back, null, Game.Instance.Exit);

            // bind the keyboards enter and escape keys to start and exit
            // the game accordingly
            int keyboardId = InputManager.Instance.
            FindDevice("keyboard");
            InputMap.BindCommand(keyboardId, (int)Microsoft.Xna.Framework.Input.Keys.A, null, Game.Instance.StartGame);
            InputMap.BindCommand(keyboardId, (int)Microsoft.Xna.Framework.Input.Keys.Enter, null, Game.Instance.StartGame);
            InputMap.BindCommand(keyboardId, (int)Microsoft.Xna.Framework.Input.Keys.Escape, null, Game.Instance.Exit);
            InputMap.BindCommand(keyboardId, (int)Microsoft.Xna.Framework.Input.Keys.B, null, Game.Instance.Exit);

        }

        public void OnMainScreenWake(GUIControl mainGUI)
        {
            // perform your custom screen-activation tasks
        }
    }
}
